Pros

Decent payment in comparison to the retail competition.

Cons

sharp hierarchy, toxic colleagues and superiors, systematic surveillance and monitoring. Distrust from the superiros. If you dare to check your phone for a second in order to check the time you will be suspected of laziness. Ridiculous! Unpaid overtime work.

Pros

+ industry leading wages Associates - $12/hr, Shift Mgr - $16/hr, SMT - $23/hr, Store Manager - $75,000+/yr + great work environment + excellent training + health, dental, vision, life insurance, 401k + 40-50 hr/wk with paid overtime Very fast paced so work hours fly by. I loved working at Aldi. The pay was great! Benefits great! Was training to be a store manager so a lot was expected of me but I was totally up for it. My store manager loved my work, associates loved my fairness, customers loved me.

Cons

+ work/life balance + walked 28,000 steps/day!!! Never thought I would be fired for clocking in only minutes late!!
